    Evening,

    Considering purchasing either Ksyrium SLS or SLR's.

    I know the SLS come with a great reputation but no little about the SLR's.

    Any opinions?

    Hi, I'd be interested in any feedback on them too and the service you got in selecting/ordering them and postage costs etc.

    I have the slr's on my bike for the past year and I love them.
    My wife has the sls's on her bike for the past year and she loves them! :)

    I still think the slr's are the best looking clincher on the market. I know it's just the exalith (whatever) coating that just "looks" like carbon. I can't tell you that the braking is fantastic'er as a result, I just really like the way they look and they roll as well as any other wheel 1200 euro+ wheel I've ever had.

    Buy the ones you like, is what I always say.

    And those wheelsmith ones linked above look lovely too.

    Derek at wheelsmith was an absolute top man to deal with. Ring or email your details- as much info about your bike,what mileage you do, terrain you ride etc he has wheels to suit all. The Race 23's cost £450 + £15 delivery, around €560 when I got mine in May. They are so plain to look at but climb and descend the Donegal hills amazingly well and are as true as day 1 after more than 5k kms. Check out reviews elsewhere. I was going to buy the SL's but made a nice saving an yea I'm very happy with them.
